DCEmu is Back

Its 2017 and DCEmu the Homebrew and Gaming Network is Back and better than before, we have condensed the sites and forums and got rid of ads, the future is here and bright at DCEmu., If you would like us to do reviews of your Games/Gaming Products/Electronics or wish to advertise/write/post articles in any way at DCEmu then use our Contact Page for more information.

For the last year ive been away from DCEmu and once you step away its hard to get back but I decided a while back that its time to go back to basics and condense all the sites as far as I can, get rid of meaningless sites and then when I have it all as I want it, get back to newsposting like I used to years ago, with that in mind, all our Nintendo News is now going to be under one site, that means all the DS, 3DS, Wii, Wii U, Gamecube, N64, Snes, GBA, NES, GBC, GB and any future news will all be together.

When I start posting news again we will host our files also and get back to the good old days.

Nintendo announced a Super Smash Bros. for Wii U bundle that includes a Gamecube controller and more importantly an adapter to plug Gamecube controllers into Wii U. This bundle, according to Amazon, will cost $99.99.Nintendo has not set official pricing for the package and have not said if the Wii U Gamecube controller adapter will be sold separately.Super Smash Bros. for Wii U will be released sometime in 2014. The Nintendo 3DS version is scheduled to come out on October 3 in North America. Siliconera has been playing Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS and will have impressions soon.http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00...YO6QVMPETTD6BL

Whether you're the owner of a local gaming shop or the parent of the world's most spoiled child, now you, too, can make a sizable investment in the momentary, fleeting happiness of a youth with this "life-size" Mario statue.

Available for ¥285,000 (about $2,900) from Amazon Japan, the statue stands five feet tall and is made from fiber-reinforced plastic. There aren't really any bells or whistles to speak of, what with it being a statue and everything, but it doesgive the owner a reference point for extrapolating the heights of everyone else in the Mario mythos. Is that worth nearly $3,000? Probably. Do we have $3000?Nope. Click up on the source link below for the fully-in-Japanese details, but be warned that the related items on this listing are not safe for work.

While the Oculus Rift is currently the world's great hope for a future lived inside digital spaces, it's not the first stereoscopic box developers have asked us to cram our faces into. For most of us, that honor goes to Nintendo's Virtual Boy, herald of vectorized headaches (in 3D!) to 700,000 or so hopeful people with $180.

If you're one of the lucky people with an Oculus Rift development kit, however, you can now recreate that ol' black-and-red magic with VBjin-ovr, a freeware Virtual Boy emulator for the Oculus Rift. As seen in this video from YouTuberCymatic Bruce, wherein VBjin-ovr is used to play the obscure first-person survival horror game Insane Mouse Mansion, the Rift primarily functions as a head-mounted display, as Virtual Boy games have no use for the device's various bells and head-tracking whistles.

Still, the experience seems about as accurate as one could hope for without the real deal. Is there an Excedrin emulator out there?

A lot is happening at the moment related to Bulletproof Software's unreleased "Faceball" game for Virtual Boy, thanks to some noble souls going to great lengths to do great things for the community.

To make a long and twisted story short: an about 80% complete prototype of the game has been in private hands for many years, but last September, everything changed when detailed descriptions of said prototype had been posted on our forum by Japanese "Mr. G".

A bit later, the prototype had found its way into the hands of Virtual Boy enthusiast and PVB member bigmak, who has successfully dumped the cartridge by now and is going to release the ROM for free later this year! To recoup a part of the five-figure(!) sum spent to make all this possible, a special fundraiser is going to happen soon, in which people will have a chance to show their support for bigmak and receive complete, boxed reproduction copies of the game in return! Check out the respective thread in our forum for all the yummy details.

Even more goodness is added by the fact that substancial progress has already been made by thunderstruck in hacking the game. Chances are good that the game will eventually be completed by fans and released in a special edition. Find all the info in our forum here.

Unaware of the great things that would happen, elite homebrew coder DanB chose a completely different approach to let everybody enjoy Faceball: he coded a clone of the game called "Ballface", using the detailed descriptions provided by Mr. G. Don't miss to check out the freshly released first demo of this impressing homebrew achievement in our forum!

Games icon not yet ready to resign, but is passing responsibility to younger colleagues

Shigeru Miyamoto is helping foster a new generation of games developers within Nintendo as age begins to catch up on the talismanic games designer.
Months after Nintendo tried to calm investors from anxieties over Miyamoto’s retirement, the games designer has again been questioned on his long-term position.

"We all get older. I'm already about to turn 60,” he told Spanish national paper El Mundo.
“In recent years I've been telling people within Nintendo [that] I'll have to retire at some point. We must be prepared. That's why I given more responsibility to younger colleagues.”
But Miyamoto reiterated that he is not yet ready to quit, and that previous claims suggesting otherwise were the result of a “misunderstanding”.

DCEmu is now at the stage where we can call the network full again and with the addition of many new sites that cater not only for emulation and homebrew/hacking news but also for gaming and the likes of ebay and amazon too.

Since bringing our sites backonline late last year we have fully revamped each and every site and created many new ones, the sites most recent to be returned to the network are

All that leaves is around 3 sites then the whole network is back to normal and our history over the last 8 years is brought back to life.

If you havent visited for a while then please check out the sites, the main DCEmu Portal only has a selection of news artcles now and most new news is found at the respective sites.

DCEmu is as it has been since i joined all the sites under the DCEmu banner a network which concentrates on Homebrew, Hacking, Development and Commercial Gaming and Hardware News.

All Homebrew/Emulation Coders once we verify them (and i spot them) have the ability to post in all our Console News Forums and the news automatically shows on the site to which that news forum belongs. We always like to have an onsite mirror but gladly welcome the linking to your own site.

DCEmu can be used by coders to become their release centre and with the Homebrew Scene across so many scenes being so massive now you can quickly get noticed by a lot of sites including mainstream networks.
Now with the News forums, normal members cant start topics in them but you can reply to any topic, Normal Members can post as Normal in any None News forum. I get so many emails asking why he/she cant post in whatever forum.

How Can You Help DCEmu

This site like any site is a massive undertaking and we need help on every console scene. No site in any scene is 100% perfect on what they cover and totally up to date. In homebrew methods change all the time and only you the users can help others join in the fun. If your a specialist in any console area and you want to see all the news appear its a great way of making sure it happens.

We are always in the need of Tutorials and Guides and FAQs not only for Homebrew but for hacking and Development and even just for gaming on consoles.

Our DCEmu Reviews Website is also in the need of reviews of both Hardware, Homebrew and Games Reviews so please review as much as possible.

Newsposters are always in need especially for WIP and Release News of Emulators, Homebrew etc and across many languages, i am English and to be honest the the translation apps on the net are crap, but the more help we get the better we can become, ive also no doubts that there are releases in places like Japan, China and Korea etc that never reach the likes of DCEmu and others because of language barriers.

This is a bit off topic from our usual gaming related reviews and news but we would like your help! We just launched our new photography camera gear reviews and deals site. Although we have over 3,000 unique hits for the first month since we launched, we want to keep it rolling! The idea is the same as what we've been doing on DCEmu Reviews; post up latest news and reviews but at the same time, post any great deals that we see and come across. So if you or someone you know who loves photography, check out 1KIND Photography. We hope to have a contest shortly but we need more people subscribed...so HELP SPREAD THE WORD!
